Sensei Garth had us doing all kinds of new (too me) stuff tonight. All rather interesting... but the Aiki Otoshi totally took the cake.... I was working in wiht Sensei Tara and another student and trying to figure out how this one worked. Having a bit of an issue with the ukemi and I was sure it was going to happen....

then it did.

I went in for he attack.

Sensei Tara dropped into place.

And I managed to very ungracefully trip over and then flatten her.

Ummm....good reversal or just another funky version of bowling for senseis?
